I like the dandelion that is growing at the side of Herb David's right now.

Yes! John and I have noticed it too. It's that odd combination
of huge and perky.

Sometimes I feel inadequate because I cant get dandelions to grow in my
yard. Oh sure, I get one or two in the spring but that's it!
Anyhow, I cleaned my room including under the bed.

I think dandelions need sun. They never grow in my back yard, which is shaded
by my house to the south, the neighbor's house to the west, and two trees (one
at each end).

Got a start on a hack to model the monocoque plydome idea. I
just happened to have a stack of 3x5 cards on the table, and
the drafting gear nearby.

Built a space ship out of lego. Not great, but good enough to impress Arlo.

Have finally gotten the beginning of the troublesome scene in the novel to
go right.

I helped out in another department at City Hall today-- Utility
Billing-- in mailing, stuffing envelopes for budget program billing.
This, I hope, will continue to show my worth to the City and increase
my chances for getting a job.
I have also begun helping the Cable Communications Coordinator with
updating the Calendar on CityView, Richland's public access channel.
I've been using PowerScript to make the updates. I've worked on them
before, but I will be working on this endeavor on a weekly basis now.

PowerScript? The Videonics titler software? If so I may need to chat with
you....

I collected significantly improved fluorescence microscopy pictures,
conducted metal-ion selectivity and binding dissociation constant expts on
esterase-treated compound, finished and folded laundry, and tidied my
room. Now ready to settle into a four-day visit from boy. :)

One of the shelves is up. I think the installation method can
be considered proven.

Got the second shelf up and the gear stuck on it in more or less
the final positions.

Using a laser rangefinder (cool!), I determined that the width of the
screen at TOP is 29' and the distance from the screen to the projection
booth is approximately 100'.

resp:89 yep, Chris, that's the one. Mike Charboneau is basically a
broadcaster, and I'm just doing basic screen titles for city updates
(calendar information).

Got the leaking coolant bottle swapped out of the Vdub, and the
cooling system at least partly flushed out and new coolant in
it. I think it's set for summer. (It damn well better be; there
isn't anything old left in the system to spring leaks.)

Got a new RH install put on my much-neglected new machine.
Built out my dome model to a full 5/8 sphere.

Ah yes, I'm familiar with RH. I'm using Mandrake 9.1 now. Been
thinking about checking out Plan 9 I've heard about.

Re #97: What model Veedub do you have, russ?
I can't say I'm fond of Volkswagen's philosophy of cooling system
design. I've never really gotten comfortable with the idea of plastic
jugs holding 15 psi at 200 degrees F.

Re #102: It's a 1985 Jetta GL, and still goes pretty nicely; I'm
trying to wear it out before I get rid of it, with a notable lack of
success thus far. Aside from the stress cracks (which appear to
have come from an impact), I've had no problem with the bottle - the
radiator and heater core are also half plastic, as on a great many
modern vehicles. Or at least the new ones are, I replaced them earlier.

My '82 diesel Vanagon still has the original 21 year old coolant bottle,
so I guess I really can't complain too much about the durability. They
are known for cracking (or, on rare occasions, exploding) at awkward
moments, though.
